participants to promptly recognize several life-threatening emergencies, give
high-quality chest compressions, deliver, appropriate ventilations and provide
early use of an AED.

simulated clinical scenarios and learning stations. Students work with an AHA BLS Instructor to
complete BLS skills practice and skills testing. Students also complete a written exam.

They use updated science and education from the new 2015
AHA Guidelines. It is also
instructor-led, hands-on class format that reinforces skills proficiency. There is an emphasis on high-quality CPR
including a team dynamics classroom activity.
It is a video-based course with real world scenarios.
